• OU beat Kansas 94-82 in overtime in Lawrence earlier this season. Sophomore guard Taylor Robertson led the Sooners and tied her career high with 31 points in the win, scoring 25 points after halftime. The Sooners outscored Kansas 67-33 between the second half and overtime.

• The Sooners are on a four-game losing streak, which is tied for their longest losing skid of the season. They dropped four straight earlier in Big 12 play before breaking that winless streak with the victory over Kansas.

• Freshman guard Gabby Gregory recorded a career high in OU’s last game, a loss at Baylor. Gregory scored 30 points and is the only freshman in the Big 12 to hit that mark this season.
